Background: Sensor-augmented insulin pump therapy (SAPT) with low-glucose suspend (LGS) is an effective and safe alternative for treating patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM). New predictive low-glucose management (PLGM) systems decrease the severity and duration of hypoglycemic events. However, evidence of benefits in patients previously treated with SAPT-LGS is limited.

This study evaluates the impact of an educational program and a basal-bolus insulin regimen on the blood glucose level control and risk of hypoglycemia in this population.
Methods: A before-and-after study was conducted in type 1 and type 2 DM patients undergoing PD at the Renal Therapy Services (RTS) clinic network, Bogota, Colombia.
